- Springfield's men are in crisis. Marge turns to a Man Camp to save the men of Springfield from themselves.
Plot[edit]
At the last day of school, the kids get out early, throwing their books out of their bags, and Willie runs over them with his tractor. Skinner comes out calling them back, but it's too late, while Lisa tastes a piece of Toni Morrison's Beloved. Summer starts, and Bart and Lisa begin it differently, Lisa by writing welcome notes to new teachers, and Bart by playing on his VR headset, staying in his room for a week, which concerns his parents. However, Homer soon joins him instead of taking him out. Marge intervenes and asks Homer to take Bart outside for some activity, and he chooses fishing.
While searching for a fishing hole, Homer finds an ad on his phone, and they stop on the couch. Grampa approaches the house to find Ned pumping air into their car tire, and Grampa starts complaining about it being their job. Marge asks Alexa for help with an emotional emergency, but it calls 911 instead. After some insisting, the real Alexa behind it suggests to her and other women in town to send their men to a weekend at Man Camp and Boys Camp.
Greg introduces them to the camp and then invites the men to converse with a robot woman, but most fail, while Homer starts to sense others' feelings but fails to give a hug to Greg. For the others, Greg invites Coach Krupt to teach them how to deal with it without being slapped.
At the Boys Camp, Greg starts teaching the boys a lesson, beginning with the bullies having their bullying turned on them, and telling them their problems started with cellphones. However, he receives a phone call from his mom that takes forever to end. Back at Man Camp, he uses the talking stick, where they start telling Homer his problems, and after helping him, he tells them to stare into each other's eyes for the next step toward empathy.
Each one relives their problems from the past, while the kids are invited to build something together. Bart builds a TV and imitates Krusty introducing Itchy and Scratchy, using a raccoon and a rat. In town, women are free to make decisions while their men are at camp, with Greg showing them dad jokes from other shows, and the kids helping each other form a ladder so they can save Ralph as he quickly goes down the stream.
At the end, around the campfire, their last test is to kill their dinner, a duck, but when Homer picks it up instead of killing it, Greg tells them that kindness is the right answer and declares them all men. Back in town, it's all transformed into a women's dream, but the men accept it and all hug their women, including Moe with Maya, but he's stopped by his mother, as the five-year separation they agreed to hasn't ended yet.
